The Gettysburg Foundation and the National Park
Service are bringing several Eisenhower-era artifacts out of storage for the
first time in 15 years

Gettysburg National Military Park Museum and Visitor Center - Gettysburg
Foundation & National Park Service

1195 Baltimore Pike
Gettysburg, PA

1-877-874-2478

Beginning on December 3, 2014, visitors at the
Museum and Visitor Center can view three newly conserved Nativity dioramas
that President Dwight D. and Mamie Eisenhower displayed during the holiday
season in the East Room of the White House.

The dioramas, gifts from Raymond and Mildred Pitcairn of Bryn Athyn,
Pennsylvania, were hand crafted by artists Winfred S. Hyatt and Hanna Weil
Fischer-Binder with additional work by Bryn Athyn Studios of Building &
Architectural Arts. In 1954, the first of the dioramas depicting the manger
scene was presented to the First Family. In 1957 two additional scenes
depicting the shepherds and the wise men were also crafted and presented along
with an audio narrative of the Christmas story. Before leaving the White House
in 1961, Mrs. Eisenhower presented the three Nativity dioramas to the
Gettysburg Presbyterian Church where they were displayed until 1994. With
major church renovations underway, the congregation loaned the dioramas to the
Eisenhower National Historic Site for display. Donated to the NPS permanently
in 1998, the dioramas were only displayed for two years because of sustained
damages.
